This whole unfortunate incident with [sic.] "Catholics for Free Choice" filing a complaint with the IRS against Catholic Answers' voting guide has got me thinking. In the heat of the election campaign, I think we Catholics have to pay closer attention to the truthfulness of our statements. For example, many of my fellow Catholics have accused John Kerry of being a flip-flop and of never keeping his promises. Well, what do the facts say?
In a 1984 interview, Kerry promised to vote against "Any restrictions on age, consent, funding restrictions, or any law to limit access to abortion." (John Kerry As Quoted In "Mass. Senate Candidates Quizzed On Women’s Issues," Sojourner: The Women’s Forum, 6/30/84)
To the best of my knowledge, Kerry has never broken his word in this regard. For twenty years, Kerry has consistently voted against any legislation that would limit abortion. I have yet to see anyone expose or bring to light an exception. So rather than being a liar and a flip-flop, Kerry has kept his promise when it comes to supporting the barbaric butchery of our children in the womb.

We can at least say he's consistant. The problem here is he is a non-bobble head on one serious issue; One in which he is, again, on the wrong side of the fence. Does this guy even know what happens in a 'partial' birth abortion? He 'cares' so much for life when it comes to halting police actions and wars. Things he really knows about just enough to make him dangerous to living breathing Americans abroad. OK, maybe he does not care about any persons life! He cares, me, he scares. Bush is still only option here.
